Thermoelectric Antonio GuiterasFrom Matanzas, left the National Electricity System (SEN) this Wednesday morning.
As reported in Facebook José Miguel Solís, an official journalist specializing in the matter, attributed the reason to a “difficulty” called oil control.
The new problem at the plant comes two months after its last synchronization, said engineer Ruben Campos Olmos, who announced that a solution would not be available before Thursday.
“Once the damage is assessed in depth, we will provide details, initially, they are thinking about 24 hours,” the reporter said.
What is called “oil control”?
“Oil control” in a thermoelectric plant refers to a system or set of equipment for managing the flow, pressure, and temperature of oil used in various processes within the plant. In thermoelectric power plants, oil can have several important functions:
Lubrication: Many mechanical plant components, such as bearings in generators and turbines, require an efficient lubrication system to function properly. “Oil Control” controls the supply and pressure of lubricating oil to these components.
Refrigeration: In some plants, oil is used to reduce the heat generated in equipment, especially in components that operate at high temperatures.
Hydraulics: Oil can be used in hydraulic systems to operate valves, regulators and other devices that require power to operate.
he”Oil control“Pumps, filters, heat exchangers, control and monitoring systems, among other components, ensure that the oil inside a thermoelectric plant is in the optimal condition for its specific function. It is a critical component for the safe and efficient operation of the plant.
